It all started when Outdoors left me a voice mail calling me out to show up to Brown's Camp this weekend to do some wheeling. If you know me; I am always up for a challenge! Here are some photos from my trip out!

Here's Outdoors making his way up Firebreak Five! He took the left-side (the easier side! )





Me starting my way up the right side!




MelJr showing how it should be done!




Even stopped off and watched some Jeeps take on the Crushers!

Yep, Jeff's right I did take the easy side up being the first one up the trail as the trail leader. No excuses he's right..

As Paul Harvey use to say " And now for the rest of the story"... Not sure why you left it out.?
I got a call over the cb while waiting for the whole group to meet up for the next section, saying there was a black JK stuck on the trail.
Some people here may know the spot jsears got stuck on FB5.. It's after the rock garden heading up the hill that has that sharp left turn with some ruts in it.. We had THREE JK UNlimited's with our group (jsears, Brian?, meljr) It was great seeing meljr again and jsears..
Brian it was nice meeting you as well. The rest of the rigs were a YJ on 38's, TJ on 33's, TJ on 35 Krawlers, 96Bronco on 37's, and my LJ on 35's.
It was a nice run which started Friday morning and night, All Saturday as well. Quite the weekend..

I really wasn't stuck. I could back up! I just need to learn not to take the same line as 2-doors!

But thanks for navigating me through the tight section! I know the stinger made it a little more difficult!
